OF that State, simply 90 "iFy the expert

majority Of the Legislature and the Ap
peals OF many people, be gives IL q

opinion, Whish be publicly expresses,
that the Law will not have the effect, a.
lie friends claim, 10 purify the ballet
box or promote the election of q better
class Of municipal ofjiceRs. he believes
that only q minority Of the women OF
the State favor the measure. "Jast one
argument" he says, has been made In
favor Of the bill that appeals 10 my

ffage Is an experiment.. that IL IL does

suits - its frisads hope and predict,

bodisd in an amendment 20 the oousti

North Idaho has gone, and IL IL 10 be
feared that It has gone for good. The
hope which yesterday seemed on the
point OF realization, or even SEEMED to
be realized, today is a. dim and a. dis
tant az the mists which overhang the
crater Of Rainier. Seldom have the
people Of Washington and North Idaho
been afforded a better illustration Of the
truth of the adaRe,. There's many a

cup has been dashed to pieces on the

President Cleveland BY he sublerfugs
Of pocket veto has parted the almost
reunited Territories. II bill is sent "a
the President for bis signature within
ten days Of the adjournment Of Con.
Rress and the President does not sign II
before the adiournmeut takes place, il
fails 10 become q laE. This Ia what Il
known as "pOoket Veto" and
Il Is precisely what has happened to the
bill for the annexation OF Nerth Idaho

rendered Of no account the earnest worn
OF the friends OF this Territory for az.
teen years. he has defeated measure
to which there ooaId be no possible OBJ
iectisn and Of which all concerned have
expressed their approval.
The people OF Washington Territory

The Ohio Democrat. (Logan, O. [Ohio]) 1886-1906, 1887-04-23

It is dearer than land in the larger,
solid cities of the East where there
Is not SO much land out of doors.
The syndicate spent lots of money
in advertising and talk about roll
ing mills and railroads and all that
sort of thing as If they were built
In day.
The people become wild and pay
big money for lots. Some of them
sell at great advances but the syn
dicate makes the money.
The gentleman gives figures to
show the price Of land in some of
the booming towns. Land has sold
on the main street of Birmingham,
Ala, at $4,000 foot front. At
Wichita, Kas., it has sold for over
$4,000 per foot front. Neither of these
places has to exceed $4,000 inhabi-
tants. In Kansas City, which has
in the city proper not more than
100, 900 souls land has been sold for
as high as $4,000 per foot front. In
Fort Smith, Arkansas, population
about 10000, land on Garrison Av-
enue sells for $500 a foot. AT the
government sale of school lots at
Fort Smith, public auction, at
which he was present, lots 50x160
feet one mile from the center of
the town, sold for from $4,000 to
$4,000 each. These lots were a
part of last years cotton field,
were a long distance from any
buildings, and buildings nearest
were noting but miserable frame
shanties. Acre property, two and
a half miles from the main part of
Fort Smith, cannot be bought for
less than $1,000 per acre and from
that price up to $1,000 AT Kansas
City allotments 10 miles from the
city, and lots, in these plats were
selling at a greater price than is
asked for land at an equal distance
from Yew York City.-Steubenvilie

with the piece and play 1t to the
teacher in labored and beclouded
manner. The teachers question Is,
how much have you practiced on
this piece? And the answer gener-
ally comes in q very discouraged
manner, two or three hours u day.
Now, if this time or one-half this
time is put in when the mind and
body are at their best, the result
would be decidedly different. Sup
pose, that after moning duties are
completed, say nine a. M, that ex-
ercises are practiced for one-half to
three-quarters of an hour; and If
the exercises are well practiced
the pupil will undoubtedly be tired,
and shonld lie down and sleep, or
at any rate close the eyes for at
least twenty minutes; then get up
refreshed with the head perfectly
clear, and more will be learned in
that hour of clear-headed work
then could possibly be learned in
four or five hours work the other
way. OF course, the more pieces
there are the more time will be
needed to practice. For instance,
if there are three pieces, there
should be at least three hours and
a half or four hours to practice per
day. And the proper way to di-
vide the time is to put in the fore
noon as has been explained, and
the afternoon should be employed
accordingly, say from one thirty
until two thirty; then rest an hour
and a half, then practice from four
to five o'clock, but never practice
over an hour and half at one sit
ting; and always make ii a habit
to have the head perfectly clear
and rested, then the hardest pieces
are soon conquered by.good gener-
alShip,-tSORg Friend.
The Ohio Democrat. (Logan, O. [Ohio]) 1886-1906, 1887-04-23
need of any State taxation.

Senator Sherman's plan, as pro-
claimed recently at the South,
is to spend the surplus on
"national works." and let the war
taxes go on forever. And now Sem
ator Hoar comes forward with u
combination scheme of his own. Mr..
Sherman's idea is that the people
love to be taxed unnecessarily, and
that there is thrift in the policy of
taking money out of one pocket for
the purpose of letting it filter back
to the other other through the
hands of collectors and other tax
eaters. But Mr.. Hoar admits that
the present system "takes from the
people money which should not be
taken from them, and keeps from
circulation money which the peo-
pie should be using" He would
remedy the evil by diminishing
taxation," and "expending on nec-
essary public objects" the existing
surplus. But he is careful to ex-
plain that he would disturb no tax
es the imposition Of which enables
an American producer to get more
for his product than it is worth.
Yet while the Republican leaders
are thus divided their party in Con-
gress has maintained for two ses-
siohs solid front againt even con-
sidering the reduction of taxes and
in favor of the most recklessly eX-
travagant appropriations. 1t is iron
clad Bourbonish in it's adherence
to the theory that nation can be
taxed into prosperity World.
The Ohio Democrat. (Logan, O. [Ohio]) 1886-1906, 1887-04-23
The Party Of High Taxes.

From their exposed and fragile
glass house the Republicans are
throwing stones with great glee at
the Democrats for the inability of
the latter to agree upon revenue
policy. But could there be II more
